~ LoVe ~

Love delights in giving attention rather than in attracting it.
Love is flame that warms but never burns.
Love sees the other person’s point of view even when he cannot embrace it.
Love knows how to disagree without becoming disagreeable.
Love rejoices at the success of other instead of being envious.
Love puts up with peoples whims and peculiarities without being self-righteous about it.
Love avoid causing unnecessary pain.
It does not scorn, ridicule, belittle or squelch.
Instead, it tactfully inspires faith, hope and charity in those who make mistakes.
Love is willing to lose in order to win.
